Feel free to discuss anything about any of the thousands of Transformer toys here. Anything from Generation 1 all the way to the soon to be released, the never to be released or the hope to be released is fair game! Want to show off your stuff?

We never saw Metroplex and Trypticon alongside Fort Max or Scorponok in the latter pair's limited screentime, so we can't say for sure.

However, The Headmasters cartoon had an episode with Metroplex standing next to Battleship Maximus, and though Metroplex certainly looked taller than the ship, Maximus looked longer if it were to stand upright next to Metroplex. But, I don't think either was shown next to one another in Robot Mode.

Most comics depict Fort Max as usually being just a bit larger than your average Autobot Leader, while Metroplex is always gargantuan in the comics.
